Temperatures were below zero for three days last week and we've seen more than twice the normal amount of snow for February. But on Sunday it was 49 degrees.

"It's so strange, but I guess that's what you get in Michigan -- Michigan winters," said Michelle Sielski of Flint Township. "It's always random and unpredictable."

It's definitely been that so far this month.

Actually, the average temperature this month has been 25.4 degrees -- a little warmer than the normal 23.8, said Bill Deedler, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

"We are averaging above normal," Deedler said. "It just seems worse because we've been swinging from warm to cold more."

Plus, there's all that snow.

A normal amount for this time of month is 9.4 inches. So far, the Genesee County area has received 22.6 inches, he said.

Terry Akers of Flint usually rides the bus to work, so he spends some time outside at the bus stops every day. The snowfall hasn't bothered him as much as the few extremely cold days, he said.

"I don't want to wait in the cold for the bus. No one does," said Akers as he waited on N. Saginaw Street for the bus. "I'm still standing here with my feet in the snow, but it would be worse if there was snow (falling) on my head and it was zero degrees, too."

All this crazy weather could make for more interesting weather twists later: When it warms up, there is a higher risk of river flooding, Deedler said."A lot of water has been absorbed into the snow, so when that all starts to melt, we might have a problem later in the year, during late winter or early spring. The chances (of flooding) are better than normal," Deedler said.
